My culinary skills have advanced insurmountably since I started following your channel, you explain things beautifully, easy to understand and without fail every-time I make one of your recipes and taste it when it’s ready my eyes and my families open widely in disbelief that I made that, my kids would never have eaten tofu or vegan food had I told them what it was, now they ask me all the time to cook your food and now they also know it’s tofu and vegan, I’m not vegan by the way just an open minded foodie, thank you sir for all your knowledge and wisdom
You are describing my situation pretty closely. I would think that this YeungMan is crystallizing a lot of people’s life with his style of cooking and the sharing of his wisdom. We are all the better for it. I for one am very grateful and feel very fortunate to have come across his site.
I was about to say the same thing. I'm not much of a cook, but I figured I needed to find some relatively easy recipes since switching to veganism back in February. But listening to Mr. Yeung's voice makes me want to cook all day. So soothing!
Wife made this the other night. It was better than eating at a Chinese restaurant. This is the third recipe she has tried. Every single one of them are hits. We plan to have these in our recipe rotation frequently.
My husband and I made this tonight! We doubled the recipe and it was outstanding in flavor😋. My husband says he will eat vegan more often with food like this!❤
Your channel is hands off one of the best cooking channels I've ever come across. The creativity, passion, presentation.. not to mention your recipes are delicious! Thank you ❤
I'm a gluten free vegan. Food has been so disappointing for me for many years. Tonight I made this dish and so pleased with how it turned out. My taste buds are singing, my tummy is uncomfortably full, and my heart is happy knowing I have delicious options out there to make. Thanks again! Just one question - who cleans up? Cheers!
LAY HO There 👋🏻 I hope you’re keeping well and cooking well. If you’re new to the channel here, be sure to pick up your free ebook that has 5 super easy plantbased recipes to get you started with cooking today. Link in the description box! Happy cooking 🥳
Yer food ain't healthy dude. It's as crappy as can be. Veggies are generally idiots with the exception of Hindus and Buddhists. Don't give me any New Asian ME Too bullshit. Your types bring shame to our ancestors. Unlike my bro Nigel.😂
My god. Your videos are always so good. The music is soothing. No unnecessary content unlike other UA-camrs. The recipes are amazing. This is just perfection
THIS was most amazing. I am in General Tsao's heaven right now. It took me two weeks to get my act together, go to the Asian Market and get all the ingredients to make this dish - and the many others on your channel. I started following you after watching and making the roasted pepper soup with chickpeas and it has been a mouthwatering experience! You are a true artist in the production of your videos and in cooking itself. Thank you and until the next dish!
This the best tofu dish I have ever made. I followed the recipe exactly and it was delicious. Served with a mushroom and snow pea stir fry, but it was so rich that I might just have it with salad next time. Fantastic. (I am not vegan. I cook meat many nights. But Wil’s recipes are so great that no meat is needed.)
Ok Wil. 1. I was JUST THINKING that I need actual ramen bowls!!! I'm IN!!! 2. The organization of your cabinet speaks to my soul!!! That needs it's own video! 3. This recipe is SO much 'batter' than my lazy fried tofu 😊!! Again, I'm IN!!! Thanks Chef!!!🎉🎉🎉❤❤
I love your recipes! They’re delicious, and they WORK! I would caution my fellow cooks to eat this tofu dish immediately, as the tasty sauce will soften the crispy exterior in just a few short minutes. A new favorite, in my kitchen! Thank you!
I live in Europe and made this for lunch 2 hours ago (and I'm not even a tofu fan, but my son is). This recipe is absolutely BOOMING! 🎉 The flavors and crunch made my taste buds feel like heaven! We ate it with a fresh salad, which also contained pear. The combination was surprisingly good. (And I ran out of avocado oil, so I used arachide oil. I think you can also use sunflower oil, because the oil is only for frying. The sauce makes the flavor!) I will definitely be making this recipe more often , and share with others! Thank you, Will!!! Sending you love from the Netherlands ❤
I made this for dinner tonight. Indeed, as you say, this is not a traditional General Tso's. But it is every bit as delicious, in its own right: an original, exotic flavor (I'm tempted to say "flavors," as it's so complex), earning its own special place in cuisine. Bravo! Oh, and last night I made your chili oil (version 2.0) to use in this recipe; it of course fulfilled its role perfectly, and I look forward to exploring its use in future recipes.
Another vegan version of an all time favorite of mine. Thanks again. I'm going to reinstate splurge-a-little dinner on Friday nights and try recipes like this. Yum.
I did it! It was the tastiest food I've had all year. I can't wait to serve it to my vegan sister when she comes to visit. Oddly, I had most of the ingredients on hand. I did make a special trip to Sprouts to purchase their brand of super firm tofu. It was marvelous to work with. Thank you for this amazing recipe.
This is so relaxing to watch! Seriously 😏 I'm vegan and you're giving me so many ideas! Thank you for making it so easy to watch and follow the steps. Your videos are beautiful and your voice is very calming! I enjoy watching your videos and I feel like I'm in a high-end cooking show! 😁🙌
This recipe is absolutely amazing! I’ve made it 3 times in the past few weeks, and my whole family loves it. To make it a more complete meal, I added stir fried broccoli, carrots, onions, and mushrooms and doubled the sauce to coat the veggies. It tasted better than the General Tso’s bean curd from our local favorite Chinese takeout place…we haven’t ordered it there since making this at home!! 😊
I've made the recipe with homemade ''lentil tofu'', and made another batch the day after. Ill have to try with normal tofu as well, really intrigued with what you can do with different ingredients that are not usually in your fridge. Waiting for more!
Chef ~ haven't watched your channel in awhile but saw your video now and thought wow you look so young . You always have but had to look what year you made this and it's current lol I say this compliment with a good heart Blessings to you and thank you for your easy and always delicious meals
I really appreciate your channel. I am a visual learner, just watching your UA-cam channel and your cooking recipes I have added many of your recipes to my Caribbean cooking 🇹🇹🇹🇹. Thank goodness I recognize many of the spices you use in your cooking because it is used throughout our T&T cuisine. 😊😊
This looks absolutely amazing! The crunch on that tofu was out of this world! I think you are right... make this once and we'll want to make it every night! I love General Tso's so this is a perfect recipe for me. Thank you for sharing, Wil!
You have such a pleasant speaking voice. It makes listening and watching your cooking videos more enjoyable. I've tried a few of your recipes and I've enjoyed them all. Today is my birthday. I will treat myself by purchasing YEUNG MAN COOKING cookbook. This said, thx for sharing this recipe. It looks so yummy. I'm looking forward to giving this recipe a go this weekend. Have a great night.
After u quit dairy, my body lost inches that never came back. I love TOFU...LOVE the fact that it comes in so many different textures. For high protein pasta sauce I use silky tofu and for dishes like these extra firm. Thanks a lot for yet another wonderful tofu dish.
This looks wonderful. I love the ramen bowl and spoon. It has a nice weight to it. It is now my favorite bowl. I made a variation of the Marsala ramen. It was very good and I enjoyed using my new bowl.The Tofu Katsu recipes are also excellent.
This is fantastic. I'm also not a vegan but people I love very much ARE. And I follow your recipes to bring us together ❤ looking forward to making this for them
If there's anyone here who has NOT tried this recipe yet, do it. All this guy's recipes are amazing, but this one is indescribably delicious and satisfying! I make it at least once a month.
Will, watching you cook is hypnotizing and hunger🤤 inducing!! Your voice combined with the music makes me feel like I'm cooking and meditating at the same time😊 A two for one deal! I've never had a cooking crush but I think I do now. Thank you for your culinary creations and making being healthy easier. 😊
I loved the look of that highly organised kitchen cabinet so much I just had to rewind to have another look! I just reorganised all my herbs and spices alphabetically, but they look nothing like that! Amazing!
Omg so going to try this. Tofu when it’s done right is my favourite . You make it look so elegant and easy. Those tofu pieces tossed in flour look like pure silk. Very relaxing to watch ❤
I didn't have tofu, so I made this last night with tempeh. Needless to say... AMAZING! You were right. Game Changer!! Will definitely be making it again. Thanks, as always, Wil!!
I made this tofu thank you for your technique! I can’t believe the texture the tofu took on with the layering of the corn starch. I put salt and pepper and garlic powder on the tofu when I was frying it. The tofu was so good, had to force myself to stop from eating it all before I cooked it with the sauce. You are an amazing chef I’m sure your food is even more delicious to taste.
@@Equinox1.5 I think the original poster meant you can cook it in the oven instead of deep frying in oil but the recipe and method is in the description box. Just click on 'more' under the title and it will take you there on the right hand side of your screen. Then click on 'more' again and scroll down.
Made this tonight and it actually turned out like yours - love when UA-cam and reality line up. Definitely tasty and worth making. Next time, I think I'll double the sauce. Great recipe - thx. :)
OMG THIS IS BOMB. I tried the baked method and it still comes out amazing (about 10mins each side at 220°C). This also made me cook the chili oil. Excited to try that out in different dishes. ❤
Great to hear that the baking option worked for you (because that would be my only option if I try this recipe). I have a question. In the baking instruction (3:48-3:55) he says that you have to have to use oil spray. Did you oil spray all of the battered tofu pieces? Or did you just spray the pan you used? It's sounds like he means that we should oil spray the battered tofu which I guess might imitate the oil of deep frying. Something about that seems wrong, though.
@@Anon-hh3mj He says "oil sprayed on" meaning onto the tofu pieces, but I'll try with and without to see if it makes a difference, would prefer without.
Wil, going forward, would you please consider including the name / composer of the delightful music you seem to always play in the background? (Fairly certain I'm not the only one who'd like to know.)
I made this on Saturday!! I tasted the sauce while making it and though good, the sauce flavor was really strong. But after coating it in the fried tofu, the sauce soaked into the tofu and softened it a mellowed out the flavor. It’s so good…and so pretty. It looks like general Tao’s chicken on the outside 🙂 next time I’ll try it in my oven. Thank you for sharing this recipe
Yes, the best cooking production videos on UA-cam. Very precise, almost zen-like. I pause/watch as I follow the recipes, keeps me in the zone, and this quiet attention to detail is reflected to the dish.
I made the recipe with an improvised sauce with not all the ingedients and it was great. Make shure you have a spider spoon an a frying thermometer (170c)!
I gave this video a like before you started cooking. And after you finished cooking, the like is still there! Well deserved Wil - your are King of vegan dishes! Thank you for this one too! 😋😋😋
My stomach can't stop grumbling!!! Love Tofu, so much! Sadly, being homeless at this point of my life, I no longer have access to a kitchen but I dream of getting my mini RV! I LOVE TO COOK
Thank you, Wil! I've been looking for a vegan recipe of one of my favorite Chinese takeout dishes. This looks amazing. You're the best. (😂 You had to sneak that pun on me)
OH MY GOODNESS! This was absolutely delicious! I used smoked tofu because that's what I had on hand, and it was great. Thank you for helping me get over my fear of frying!
Made this last night. Very good. Only thing is, I bought a bottle of Iron Kitchen General Tso sauce. Thank you for showing how to cook the Tofu. It was my first time making it.
I'm a fan. Being a health educator, I support every cook you do. May I request some basic sauces and which are fit to match. I see that your recipes are often with diff.sauces. Pls. Pls. Share the sectet of it to match
Hello! I love your videos because they are straight to the point and so soothing too😊. This is the 2nd menu I tried. I loved it so much. Just wanted to know how I could cook the coated tofu next time in an airfryer instead of deep frying it?
You have such a beautiful voice! The way you prepare the recipe step-by-step and how you narrate it step....allows me to study and understand the recipe. I will plan to make it soon. You're my #1❤
I'm still sitting here watching while I haven't eaten yet. It's about 1:30 in the afternoon. Your videos are perfection. I was listening to the music (just the right volume, btw)... I had to go back and rewatch you cooking. Lol. Anyway two questions. If you don't mind. What brand(s) of soy sauces along with sesame seed oil are you using? And... Can you tell me what this beautiful music is?
I spent 6 hours making this dinner. I never told my husband what I was cooking. He loved it. “The chicken is so tender “. After he ate all of it I told him it was mushrooms. 😂😂
I’m only 1 1/2 minutes into your video and I’m already a fan! You had me at “the irregular shaped tofu will allow for an extra crispy surface layer” because not only does this increase overall external surface area, but the more jagged/irregular nooks and crannies will grab and hold that batter nicely. I find my mouth watering and I’m rubbing my hands with glee in anticipation of making this tomorrow. *[whispers “My Preciousssssss”]* 🤤
I substituted chicken instead of tofu and soy sauce with coconut aminos due to allergies. I used less sweetener….and the most amazing chicken was the result! Thank you!

I made the recipe with an improvised sauce with not all the ingedients and it was great. Make shure you have a spider spoon an a frying thermometer (170c)!
I gave this video a like before you started cooking. And after you finished cooking, the like is still there! Well deserved Wil - your are King of vegan dishes! Thank you for this one too! 😋😋😋
You're the best! 🙌🏻
My stomach can't stop grumbling!!! Love Tofu, so much!
Sadly, being homeless at this point of my life, I no longer have access to a kitchen but I dream of getting my mini RV! I LOVE TO COOK
I love to watch you cooking and you don't talk much so that's a plus and I believe that everything you cook taste great
😊 thank you
Thank you, Wil! I've been looking for a vegan recipe of one of my favorite Chinese takeout dishes. This looks amazing. You're the best.
(😂 You had to sneak that pun on me)
THANKYOU Will.
It came out just WOW!
Stay healthy.
Greetings from Austria.
🙌🏻😎 my pleasure and you as well!
Just made this and it’s the best deep fried, sauced dish I’ve ever made. Thank you Will!
My pleasure and happy to hear you enjoyed 🥳
OH MY GOODNESS! This was absolutely delicious! I used smoked tofu because that's what I had on hand, and it was great. Thank you for helping me get over my fear of frying!
Wow it's look very delicious 😊
A must try for sure 🙌🏻😎
Made this last night. Very good. Only thing is, I bought a bottle of Iron Kitchen General Tso sauce. Thank you for showing how to cook the Tofu. It was my first time making it.
'But try not to snack on it too much' 😂 I love this recipe Wil thank you ❤️
Enjoy 😊
I'm a fan. Being a health educator, I support every cook you do. May I request some basic sauces and which are fit to match. I see that your recipes are often with diff.sauces. Pls. Pls. Share the sectet of it
to match
I'll try it this week! You're recipes are always so delicious, thank you! ❤❤
You are in for a real treat 😎
A HOME RUN! But, please let us know whether it has to be AP wheat flour or whether other types of flour would produce equal results.
Can’t wait to make this ❤ Looks so yummy!😋 Thank you 😊
Enjoy! 🙌🏻🥳
Hello! I love your videos because they are straight to the point and so soothing too😊. This is the 2nd menu I tried. I loved it so much. Just wanted to know how I could cook the coated tofu next time in an airfryer instead of deep frying it?
Just made this and OMG… i can finally say I made an amazing tofu dish! 🤤 😋 🙌🏼
🥳🥳🥳
I haven't made any of these recipes yet. But I can say that this one is my favorite one. And the best too. Looks like high art. Thanks Wil.
Wow Wil!! You are a mind reader. We've really been getting into Chinese style tofu recipes at home. Perfect timing!! Thank you Wil💕💕💕
Great timing for sure! Happy cooking and enjoy 🙌🏻
You have such a beautiful voice! The way you prepare the recipe step-by-step and how you narrate it step....allows me to study and understand the recipe. I will plan to make it soon. You're my #1❤
Looks delicious!
Beyond delicious 😎
I'm still sitting here watching while I haven't eaten yet. It's about 1:30 in the afternoon. Your videos are perfection. I was listening to the music (just the right volume, btw)... I had to go back and rewatch you cooking. Lol. Anyway two questions. If you don't mind. What brand(s) of soy sauces along with sesame seed oil are you using? And... Can you tell me what this beautiful music is?
I spent 6 hours making this dinner. I never told my husband what I was cooking. He loved it. “The chicken is so tender “. After he ate all of it I told him it was mushrooms. 😂😂
I made it for dinner tonight, and my husband had three helpings! We both loved it. Thank you!
Woooo! Glad to hear 🙌🏻
I don’t eat gluten - I used rice flour for the coating and batter and it worked amazing! 😊 Thank you!
Great to hear 🙌🏻
I was washing dishes and some how the algorithm brought me here. I'm glad I stay. Your video is very soothing. I'm trying this recipe tomorrow.
Welcome and happy cooking 🙌🏻🥳
I love it.
My son Julio shared this recipe. To me, it is not only a delicious recipe it is a family time. Thanks !!!❤
I’m only 1 1/2 minutes into your video and I’m already a fan! You had me at “the irregular shaped tofu will allow for an extra crispy surface layer” because not only does this increase overall external surface area, but the more jagged/irregular nooks and crannies will grab and hold that batter nicely.
I find my mouth watering and I’m rubbing my hands with glee in anticipation of making this tomorrow.
*[whispers “My Preciousssssss”]* 🤤
Enjoy and happy cooking 🙌🏻
Thanks!
You are the most kind 🙌🏻😎 You rock!
I really appreciate your videos. You help so many people😭
I used an air fryer instead and it was sooo good! It added an extra crunch to it, this is an amazing recipe!
Wonderful! 🙌🏻 Glad to hear
I substituted chicken instead of tofu and soy sauce with coconut aminos due to allergies. I used less sweetener….and the most amazing chicken was the result! Thank you!
I heard that crunch and I was envious. This dish was so simple and would also make for good sandwiches.
